ARIES (March 21-April 19): Someone will be secretive about her or his dealings. You may have to reconsider your approach to what you have to do, based on the realization that you don’t have backup or all the information required. Someone may try to coerce you into something you should not do.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Work with your peers, and you will gain popularity that will lead to your advancement. A change of plans will allow you to make the most of your time and adapt to what works for everyone else. A short trip will pay off.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t let anyone take you for granted. An opportunity will provide you with an interesting option for love and romance. An unexpected alteration will cause an emotional response if you aren’t careful. Proceed professionally.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Making some personal changes to your living arrangements will help out someone you care about and put you in a better financial position. You can start a home-based business or offer something you do well as a service.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Be ready to act fast if a deal of interest comes your way. There is money to be made if you are smart and efficient and if know your facts. If you practice what you preach, someone you want to get to know better will take notice.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’ll be torn between what you should do and what you want to do. Don’t give in to emotional meddling when everything hinges on sticking to your principles and beliefs. There are likely to be changes at home. Don’t despair.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You may feel the need to embellish a situation, and although you will get lots of attention if you do, someone will not appreciate your point of view. Keep things simple, and you can avoid sudden changes to your personal life.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You can sidestep some of the problems presented by taking charge and making concessions for anyone who doesn’t want to follow suit. Pleasing everyone will put you in a winner’s position, allowing you to get what you want from everyone you deal with in return for taking on some additional responsibilities.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t mix money and personal matters. If you do business with a friend or relative, you will pay emotionally as well as financially. Don’t let anyone try to force you into making a decision before you are ready.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Project your concerns, and discuss your intentions; the feedback you get will enable you to proceed with confidence. A knowledgeable, experienced individual will shed some light on an emotional situation.

Panther Facts by Andrew Juhl
• Panthers are short and hairy, have protruding teeth, and are incapable of intelligible communication.
• Panthers are indigenous to Northern Iowa. Thus, many are Norwegian Lutherans, dontcha know? Ya, you betcha.
• Panthers often wet themselves upon sighting any of the following: bears, lady bears, bulldogs, gazelle hounds, persons of Native American descent, blue jays, redbirds, sycamore trees, and shocks of wheat.
• Panthers have a better-than-average chance at surviving a cyclone.
• A panther’s only known natural enemy is the GRE.
• They just loooove the color purple.
• Ironically, very few panthers have actually read *The Color Purple*.
• Sometimes panthers are called “leopards” or “jaguars,” but don’t let those names fool you: They’re just panthers ashamed of the fact they’re panthers. (And who can blame them?)
• Unlike its cousins, the lion (“king of the jungle”) and the cheetah (“world’s fastest land mammal”), the panther has a somewhat less impressive nickname: “smelly cat.”
• Panthers are marked by poor vision, often mistakenly seeing the place they come from as a place to be proud of.
• Some panthers are cougars, but then again, so are some Hawkeyes.
• There can be white panthers and black panthers, but even the Pink Panther thinks a gold panther looks pretty stupid.
